Fred's answer as reported above is completely consistent with his well-known positions on the abortion issue, which are:

The Federal government has no Consitutional authority to criminalize abortion. Lacking such Constitutional authority, the Federal government cannot legally criminalize abortion.
The Federal government has no Consitutional authority to prevent States from criminalizing abortion. Lacking such Constitutional authority, the Federal government cannot legally prevent States from criminalizing abortion.
